Pedestrian Struck by Car and Pinned on a Building Wall in Brooklyn

Brooklyn, NY – Police investigation reports that a 75-year-old female driver of a silver Toyota Highlander lost control of the car, struck a pedestrian, and slammed into a residential building at 1415 Hegeman Avenue in Brooklyn Wednesday night. A male pedestrian, 58, standing outside the service entrance was pinned between the car and the wall.
